Obama Phones Sold For Drugs? Shoes?

The so-called “Obamaphone” program began as a means to provide emergency land line telephone service to rural areas many miles from urban centers, but it has since expanded to include wireless communications and was ramped up to unprecedented levels in 2012 leading up to the presidential election.

The video, the work of investigative journalist James O’Keefe and his crew at The Project Veritas, depicts workers hired by the federal government to dispense taxpayer funded cell phones to needy Americans encouraging phone recipients to sell the phones for profit. What the undercover journalists say they will do with the phones doesn’t seem to phase the workers at all.
